Description

Editor programer with Continue enabled, all the Source Control-related features of VsCode got hung. For example, it becomes impossible to update the number of modified files, and the edit window cannot show the code modification status. This issue occurs even when not enact with Continue plugin, and with Autocomplete feature of the Continue plugin is disabled. When the problem come up, every thing back to normal after disabling the Continue plugin.

I enabled WebSocket support on the reverse proxy on Open WebUI, and the problem seems to have disappeared. Cause some AI models is on my Open WebUI.

If the issue was indeed caused by this reason, or if it was due to certain APIs of Open WebUI being temporarily unavailable, neither should cause Continue to malfunction and result in Source Control-related features hanging.

Hi @danielaskdd , any logs you can share?

Is your hunch that the issue is with Open WebUI in that case?

[danielaskdd]

My assessment is that the issue was highly related to Open WebUI. This problem troubled me for a week, during which I repeatedly installed different versions of the Continue plugin. After I fixed the reverse proxy settings in Open WebUI to support WebSocket, the problem stopped occurring. Previously, due to the reverse proxy not supporting WebSocket, Open WebUI experienced multiple hanging issues and became inaccessible. Currently, Open WebUI has returned to stable operation. Since the problem hasn't recurred, I'm unable to provide any log information.

[danielaskdd]

Through Tcpdump packet capture of Open WebUI, I discovered that a 400 error occurs when Continue attempts to access Open WebUI's ollama interface during startup. I needed to change the model name in the configuration file from bge-m3 to bge-m3:latest to prevent the 400 error. This approach is unreasonable because when I use the bge-m3 model with other tools, I never need to add 'latest' to the model name.

[Patrick-Erichsen]

Hmm yeah that sounds like a frustrating troubleshooting experience. Thank you for digging in and getting to the bottom of things.

On Ollama's end, is the name of the model bge-m3 or bge-m3:latest? I am wondering if other tools are just adding :latest by default on behalf of the user.

[danielaskdd]

On Ollama, the model name is bge-m3:latest. I thing other tools is just adding :latest by default in case of using Ollama models. Ollama is sth. like docker, when you pull a model from repo without tag, latest is added automatically.

[danielaskdd]

I can finally reproduce the issue where git tools get hung. When the Autocomplete option is enabled in the Continue plugin, after editing code in VSCode for a while, the Continue plugin gets hung, and simultaneously all git-related tools in VSCode become unresponsive. I'm using a local Ollama model for Autocomplete (authenticated and forwarded to Ollama through Open WebUI). Therefore, I believe there must be a bug in how the Continue plugin interacts with Ollama. Below are some log files and screenshots that may help with your analysis of the issue.

Another case of Continue plugin got hanged. logfile: vscode1.log

[danielaskdd]

Disabling Autocomplete doesn't resolve the Continue plugin hanging issue. It's likely related to Codebase Reindex. Even with Autocomplete disabled, when not using the Continue plugin, simply saving code can cause Continue and Git-related components to hang.

[danielaskdd]

After rolling back to version 0.8.61, the problem seems to be solved. Both Continue and git-related functions no longer show any hanging behavior.
